Seven pound Gary Phillips brought Pivot Bridge with a telling challenge down the outer in the straight and he ended up comfortably defeating Well Insured by two and a half lengths. The aforementioned Bog War was a neck adrift in third.
"He burst over hurdles and I sent him back to Dan (Daly, owner, based in Dunshaughlin, County Meath).
"He ran well here over ten furlongs the last day from a wide draw.
"He won well there and hopefully he can pick up another one. He'll go back over hurdles too," reported successful trainer Ado McGuinness. (AM & EM)
